Korea National University Of Transportation Industry-Academic Cooperation Foundation currently has 11 pending office actions in the Networking & Security technology area. These actions are spread across 11 distinct examiners and 10 distinct art units. The count of 11 distinct examiners relative to the 11 pending office actions indicates that every single pending matter is being handled by a different individual.
The busiest examiner for this portfolio is KHAN, OMER S, who is managing 1 busiest examiner pending action. This workload represents 1 of the 11 pending office actions total. The fact that the busiest examiner only has 1 action highlights how the portfolio is distributed across the 11 distinct examiners, ensuring that no single official is responsible for multiple pending matters.
With 10 distinct art units involved, the company's networking and security applications are being reviewed across a wide variety of technical groups. This diversity in 10 distinct art units suggests a broad research and development focus. The prosecution strategy involves navigating the specific standards present across these 10 distinct art units and 11 distinct examiners.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 1 (9%) |
| §103 only | 6 (55%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 4 (36%) |
